PURPOSE The wavelet transform is a newly developed signal-processing tool that decomposes a signal into various levels of resolution. The wavelet transform based noise reduction has the characteristics of optimally separating signal from noise, prese

Generally, the Chang method depends on counts for the attenuation correction (AC) method in brain perfusion single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), because the head outlined for a uniform attenuation coefficient map is set to the sinogram

Small animal imaging has recently been focused on basic nuclear medicine. We have designed and built a small animal SPECT imaging system using a semiconductor camera and a newly designed collimator. We assess the performance of this system for small

One of the main factors contributing to the accuracy of attenuation correction for SPECT imaging using transmission computed tomography (TCT) with an external gamma-ray source is the radionuclide count. To reduce deterioration of TCT images due to in

We have developed a pinhole collimator for small animal imaging using dual-isotopes, such as gamma and positron emitters. A lead cylinder containing a pinhole was placed around the subject (a small animal). The cylinder was equipped with a non-collim

Filtered back projection (FBP) method, maximum likelihood-expectation maximization(ML-EM) method, and ordered subsets-expectation maximization (OS-EM) method are currently used for reconstruction of SPECT images in clinical studies. In the ML-EM meth

Collimators are used for the improvement of information about the positions of sources by limiting the incidence direction of gamma-rays and characteristic x-rays to detectors. In this study, we attempted to improve the spatial resolution of (201)Tl

Purpose: In attenuation correction of ECT images by transmission CT (TCT) with an external99mTc y-ray source, simultaneous TCT/ECT data acquisition is difficult, when the same radionuclide such as99mTc-tetrofosmin or99mTc-GSA is used as the tracer. I

Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is widely used for Nuclear Medicine. The low spatial resolution is mainly due to the limited collimator resolution. We have developed ordered subsets-expectation maximization (OS-EM) algorithm incorp
